I just enjoy doing this. Let's just enjoy it.
Yes😍
No😞
What fanfics? Is there text under the pictures?😯
Again, in the staff threads, the same old argument flared up: AI artist vs. traditional artist lol.
In short, my take on it.
I’m absolutely thrilled with what I’m creating right now, like seriously buzzing with excitement!
And the train has already left the station, Pandora’s box is wide open, too late now.
It’s the same as people used to say “photography will kill painters” — but nope, they didn’t disappear.
They just each settled into their own niches… and kept quietly stealing ideas from each other ![]()
But going forward:
One person will be able to produce an entire series without looking over their shoulder at a whole team
One person will write lyrics and sing songs even without perfect pitch or any musical education — thanks to AI (and this is already running locally at home, on weak hardware, zero censorship)
One person will make a full game
I’m genuinely looking forward to all of this.
In the end only the idea will matter.
No more gatekeeping, no restrictions, no bans, no forced political messaging, none of that garbage.
P.S. And if you really think about it, it all boils down to the money that traditional artists have lost. That’s why Wix allows AI, and that’s why traditional artists are moving to sites where there’s no AI. They just don’t want competitors.
I tend to be a Luddite with some things. I begrudgingly bought a cell phone, for instance. I love making pics and vids with AI, though, to the extent that I feel like a kid in a candy store or a toy store. I enjoy it so much. My creations are instantaneous to the point that I just go with the the thoughts that spontaneously come to mind a lot of times. It's like beat poetry mixed with a speech that was extemporaneously delivered. I seldom plan or prepare. I often just create in the moment, and AI brings our thoughts to life, so it's good to hear from someone else who appreciates this gift that gives us access to roads that were closed to us in the past.
Did you enjoy those fics?
Any requests
Did those fics sound appealing?
Really! And how interesting!
I’d like to clarify my art usage policy.
On the DeviantArt platform, you’re free to use my artwork to decorate your fanfics and other text-based content.
If you’re a regular (traditional/digital) artist and you really liked a piece (the idea), feel free to redraw it or use it as inspiration — that’s perfectly okay with me.
It would be nice if you could let me know about it (if it’s not too much trouble), I’d really appreciate it.
AI “artists”… well, they usually just steal anyway, so whatever 🙃
In short: within DeviantArt and for redrawing/referencing — go ahead and enjoy.
It would be great if you credit me as the original artist when you use my work.
